As we look ahead to 2026, many people start thinking about setting a personal goal. For some, that might be getting fitter. For others, it might be doing something meaningful for a cause close to their heart. Choosing a walking or running challenge for The Three Tumours is a powerful way to do both. Every year, supporters take on challenges in memory of loved ones, in honour of someone still living with a brain tumour, or simply because they want to help make a difference. Whatever your reason, every step helps us raise awareness and support families affected by brain tumours.
One of the most common things we hear is, “I’m not a runner.” That is absolutely fine. Walking counts. Going at your own pace counts. Showing up counts. You do not need to be an athlete or take on an extreme challenge. The most important thing is choosing something that feels achievable and meaningful to you. Whether that is a short walk close to home or a bigger event you have always wanted to try, every mile matters.
Over the years, our supporters have taken on a wide range of walking and running challenges, each one helping to raise vital funds and awareness.
Each fundraiser brings their own story, motivation and reason for taking part. Together, these efforts help fund our work and remind families they are not alone.
Brain tumours affect thousands of families every year, yet awareness still lags behind many other cancers. Funds raised through walking and running challenges help us continue supporting families, raising awareness and pushing for better understanding and outcomes. When you fundraise for The Three Tumours, you are not just taking on a physical challenge. You are becoming part of a community that cares deeply and supports one another.
Every step you take helps make a difference.
